Isaac H Grainger & Son Ltd

The largest library in the whole of the UK was designed with the community in mind. The fashionable design was quickly accepted and turned into fruition. The building won the RIBA West Midlands Award and named the best overall building of the year in 2014 as well as being named “Building of the Year 2013” in The Architects Journal. Over 30,000, Grainger’s H Range, raised access flooring pedestals were installed here, by Carillion and Capita Symonds to provide a highly durable and decorative floor, under which cabling could be routed. Tucking all important services safely out of harms reach.

An eye catching "enchanting jewellery box" was what he seeked. This was to reflect Birmingham's history in jewellery making.Grainger's had the privilege of providing a variety of H range pedestals and accessories to this modern building in the centre of Birmingham. Over 50,000 pedestals were supplied to this project and took nearly 3 months to install. The Cube's sleek style in the heart of the action of Birmingham.

Completed in July 2012 the Shard was in construction for 3 years. Grainger’s, are proud to say we supplied our perimeter access flooring pedestals on several their exposed levels. This helps to create the unique shape of the shard. Access flooring has provided over 200 miles of wiring to be hidden underfoot. Making Irvine Sellar's ambition to create such a luxurious space into a reality. 95% of construction material were recycled during the fit out. Including 95% recycled content in pedestals.Back in 2015, the Grainger family celebrated a 21st Birthday, visiting the Shard. 360 views of the capital, on a clear day provided outstanding memories for such a special occasion. Whilst looking out it was easy to spot various other jobs and projects we had worked on over the years. We were all proud to be a part of the making of The Shard.
